Warehouse Associate

Cytronic is hiring 2 Warehouse Associates for our Addison fulfillment center. We're a VC-backed startup building an automated 3PL — robotics and AI combined with hands-on fulfillment — currently shipping for 20+ e-commerce brands and growing fast. First shift, Monday–Friday. $19–$22/hour depending on experience, plus 401(k) match, medical, dental, life insurance, PTO, and paid holidays.

This isn't a standard warehouse job. The product comes to you. Instead of walking the building all day hunting for items, you work at a station and our automated system brings the product to you. You'll be trained on receiving, putaway, picking, packing, and shipping instead of doing one thing all day. And when a tool or a process isn't working, you tell us — the people who build our software work here, and they change things based on what the floor tells them.

What you'll do:

• Receive incoming freight and check it in our system against what the customer said they sent; catch shortages and damage before it gets put away
• Put away, pick, pack, and ship customer orders — the automated system brings product to your station
• Pack to each brand's packaging standards, including some kitting
• Stage outgoing shipments by carrier and cutoff time
• Count inventory and help sort out the differences
• Learn to use new equipment and software as we add it
• Speak up when something isn't working — that feedback is part of the job
• Keep your area clean, organized, and safe

What we need:

• 18+, authorized to work in the U.S.
• Dependable — a small site feels every absence
• Comfortable using a computer screen or tablet to do your work (we'll train you)
• Detail-oriented; you'd rather ask than ship the wrong item
• Willing to speak up when something isn't working
• Able to stand for most of an 8-hour shift and lift up to 50 lbs, with or without reasonable accommodation

A plus, but not required:

• 3PL, e-commerce, or fulfillment experience
• WMS, RF scanning, or ASRS experience
• You adapt well to new technology and changing process
• Interest in growing into a larger role over time
• You've improved a process at a past job, not just followed one

Why here: We're early and growing. You'll learn the whole operation instead of one station, and as we open more sites there are real paths ahead — lead roles and salaried operations positions. If you're looking for steady, dependable work at a growing company, that works too.

Occasional overtime and weekend coverage during peak season. Overtime paid per Illinois and federal law.
